💭🏠 The Imagining Home conference

🎟️ In-person and 🖥️ livestream tickets available

✅ People with disability and their family members are invited to attend free of charge.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our upcoming conference is a two-day exploration of typical and ordinary options for creating a home that is unique to each individual with disability.

Our speakers will demonstrate that the nature of a person’s impairment doesn’t prevent them from living in their own place, and that there are clever ways support can be put in place to ensure every person with disability is well supported to thrive.

Who should attend?
People with disability, their families, friends, allies, and the professionals who support them.

🗓️ Wednesday-Thursday, 20-21 May 2026
⏰ 9:00 am until 5:00 pm both days
📍Hotel Realm, Barton ACT
